nfl mobile not working with hdmi out

hey I just wondered if anyone else had seen this issue. When using the nil mobile app it works fine on the phone but as soon as you try to play the nfl network channel and connect the hdmi cable it gives a video error. I am guessing it is something in the app that prevents end users from doing this? I was hoping to watch the nfl red zone through my phone on my tv

I'm not rooted, but I am pretty sure it did work at one time that's why I am leaning to an update disabling it. I remember the playback being pretty choppy, however I am debating on going to the bionic to improve playback quality.

Im having the same issue, factory bionic, error message when loading the video, I think it might be a NFL thing. Im a little upset if it doesnt start working. The hd dock is pretty worthless. I had a message pop up on vcast when I was trying to watch a show from fox, it said video can not be played through hdmi.

It was working until a week ago. I was using it to watch nfl mobile on my tv since I got rid of my cable box at my office. Now it won't work. They may have updated the app.

Well nothing is supposed to change until the 29th. When 3g users unfortunately will lose premium content. 4g users will get free premium service for the this season starting Oct 1st. What this has to do with hooking it up to the tv I dont know lol But Ill give it a shot in a few..

I was having the same problem, but then I discovered Xternal Display in the Market. It's deseigned for the Droid X, but I tried it on my Bionic. Works! Not the best video quality, but at least now I am able to see the games on my TV!

Are you going straight from the phone to tv? I dont even get the app to show up, just a big red M :blink:

Yes, straight from the phone to the tv. Just the NFL Mobile Main Menu displays. I can scroll around, but as soon as I click on a vid, the tv goes black (like it loses the signal) and I get the pop up message on my phone saying unable to display. If I unplug the HDMI cable, the video will play just fine.
